Wonderful work on this one Mandi, it really is fantastic

As always your work is way beyound words of expression Bravo to ya once again for an outstanding work of art

so many suggestions ... !!!

Another of your fascinating collages! I'm struck by the title, it seems likely these are snippets from the renaissance painter Carlo Crivelli? That seems especially appropriate, given the season, and I'm intrigued by the choices: they are all centered on the 5 basic senses. How appropriate for an artist in general, but especially so for your work, since there's always fascinating textures and subtleties all through this. Truly a feast for all of the senses!

Absolutely fantastic imagination, Mandi!!!

Pretty incredible that you can deconstruct/reconstuct this old painting into something so fascinating and original. Excellent collage. I like the way the repetition of the hands seems to turn them into wormlike creatures.

Cool and interesting, outstanding work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Holidays!!!!!

Fantastic done again!

Actually, what I find interesting is that like a lot of your images, this one is almost but not quite symmetrical, yet very nicely balanced.

Meaningful and great work! Wonderful!

awesomely cool and far out my friend well done mandi!!

What a wild organic metamorphosis. Cool work.

Excellent work, Mandi!

Awesome composition. Splendid work!! Merry Christmas!!!

Definitely interesting! Nice work, and happy holidays!

I love it when you make pieces out of historical or other artists' images, because you totally use their vision (or an historical vision) and you make it wholly your own. Great that Mike knew the artist (I think a few others did too), and if I had time, I'd love to look through Crivelli's pieces and see where these came from. (Assuming these are all Crivellis.) You certainly got some of that visceral detail he used in his works, and you---Mike again---seem to have chosen from the 5 senses. That would make sense, as Crivelli and some others like him had a marked fascination with the allure (and sin) of the sensual world, even though their vision concentrated on the transcendent mythology of their time. You made a kind of face out of all this, yet it's also a massive multi-tych, with a slightly cruciform form (fitting for the artist); and I don't know if these fragments had this tone before, or you altered them for the piece, but you got a similar underlying tone in almost all of the pieces, that fleshly almost pale hue; thus harmonizing them. And of course---as is your nature---you made new patterns out of fingers, eyelids, etc, having them speak to each other and make meta-patterns. But I can't help but feel you caught Crivelli here, in his sensuality and strange repulsion to sensuality and in your choice of images and your shape & procession, typical of a late Medieval, early Renaissance piece. And the lips at bottom are the perfect 'end' for the image. Very impressive, fun, and rightfully disturbing, transforming an old artist into one for the present time. Very inventive all around.

Fascinating, intriguing, a bit disturbing...incredibly good.

amazing artwork !!!!! dear friend I wish you a Merry Christmas!!

Impressionante realização como sempre minha amiga, brilhante, um feliz Natal e um 2011 repleto de alegrias, aplausos (5)

Splendid image, and excellent collage, very fine work!

Beautiful work! I see many praying hands in this piece.

Interesting.

A highly creative piece of work that reminds me of those little number puzzles where you slide the pieces around.
